Well you are a Bills fan so it's interesting.

OMG you guys did make the playoffs and lost to the Jags I forgot last year. Like the low scoring nothing game.


when cinci won the last regular season game and we got in it was like winning the super bowl. that jags game was like the pro bowl

You were on a fake list of teams that couldn’t trade for him it was a complete facade outside of LA or ny.


i **** hated the bulls but I was witness to jordans prime and it was impossible not to appreciate.

Im a bills fan to the root of my soul but i root for brady every playoffs because i get what im watching.

Giannis will be that way for you over the coming years. I get why youre talking **** now. but true boston sports addicts will root for us in the ECF and against GS. youll understand the inevitability of it all. if not now sometime soon

To be honest dear, I think you want Giannis to be Lebron James. You think he already is. You all feel that it's time.....the media told you that we need another Lebron. And you think it's only fair that your small market becomes the new Cleveland Cavaliers.

Am I right?

Also if you had put younger Lebron on that Bucks team last season, he gets by the Celtics.

You realize a team can be Historic 1 year even if they weren't the year before right? I have not seen anyone proclaim them some multi year dynasty. All evidence from this year is that they are historically good.

In fact, MIL has been so dominant this year that pretty much the only arguments people can make are arguments from previous years since this year the stats all highly favor them. Yes, they could get upset like the 07 Pats or the 73 Win Warriors or they could lose to GS, another Historically great team. However, there is much more evidence to suggest they are Historically good than there is to suggest they aren't.


I’ll end this quickly for you....historic= champions aka your team for the rest of time is known in the history books as world champions. Nothing else matters.


So the 07 Pat's weren't a Histotic team? The 73 Win Warriors were not s Historic team? I think most people would disagree with that.

Giannis wouldn't even be an all-star if refs accurately called his travels and offensive fouls

You talk about having a nothing series but you played the Pistons, without Griffin for 2 games. Even with Griffin, they are WAY worse than the Pacers, not even in the same stratosphere. Easily worst in the playoffs. Pacers killed them twice down the stretch. Jesus man, use your freaking head lmao.

Also trash? They were beating you through three quarters twice this season without Dipo right?


If the Pistons with Blake are way worse than Indiana without Oladipo, then how come since he went down the rest of the regular season the Pacers had an approximately .500 record, similar to.....oh, guess who, the Pistons?

Seriously, why are these Bucks fans bombarding our board to gloat over a series that hasn't started yet?

And why does it matter to them.

Bucks fans, If you win, good, Giannis a hell of a baller. We will tip our hats, and be carry on. Win or lose, this series and your eventual "payback" literally means nothing, we as fans have known nothing but championships the last 15 years.

There's nothing you can do, nothing the Bucks can do to knock our standards down, to change our winning culture. Successful or failed revenge by your team is nothing major, we have championships.

Now go home, stop gloating, learn to win humbly.

What you are feeling, for the first time in 20 years, imagine doing it two more times in the playoffs...then imagine going all the way, winning the championship. Now, imagine that 12 times the last 18 years. Then, we will feel the stakes.

But against a favored 2nd round team who is favored? Not a big deal

It all starts with defense, playing great team defense for the celtics. They have to in order to win this series.

Furthermore, make it tough on Giannis. Make him a jump shooter. No easy baskets to the hoop. Every defender guarding him has to do that, try to give him multiple looks on defense. Guard the three point line well. The points will come especially if they move the ball, and take good shots. They have to win one game at milwaukee if they have a chance of winning the series. Let it be Game one.

Many ways to defend Giannis without double teaming him. You can't do that often because of their shooters especially khris. The key is playing good man to man defense with a little bit of help defense. Don't allow him to drive or cut to the hoop.

Kyrie is going to be big in this series, Al and Tatum too. Gordon Hayward too. Jaylen Brown should just focus on defense. Scoring is not his strength. Terry should also focus on being another playmaker with Kyrie, and on defense. Marcus Marcus should focus on making hustle plays, rebounding and once in a while shoot the 3.

If anything, make him score 50 to win. I'd rather play tough man to man. Switch it up occasionally with a little zone but don't leave the shooters. Make him do it by himself. And meet him at the foul line extended. Don't let him get a full head of steam. I'm good if Ojeleye fouls out every game too so long as he makes Giannis earn it at the line. And he's gonna have to guard people this series. No floating around and helping off his man.
and that's "MR. Irrelevant" to you!!
